Nimrat Kaur condemns people's behaviour at 5 pm on Janta Curfew day

“The attitude behind the circus that’s unfolded in so many parts of the country over “celebrating” the end of #Covid19 is the exact reason why we should be so worried for India. Praying the price we pay for this utter embarrassment and horror isn’t irreversible and drastic,” Nimrat Kaur tweeted.

The coronavirus pandemic has taken a toll on the entertainment business as the release of many anticipated movies have been postponed, and several ongoing projects have been suspended. Sooryavanshi, No Time To Die, Mulan, Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar, F9, Black Widow and A Quiet Place – Part 2, to name a few, are among the movies whose releases have been delayed. Important film events like the Cannes Film Festival, San Francisco International Film Festival, and Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles have been put on hold. Even the 2020 Daytime Emmy Awards has been cancelled amid the coronavirus outbreak.
